While I congragulate the UN's support of human rights...

I do worry about the UN Gnomes. They seem to be oppressed by their heavy workload, trying to do whatever it takes to support us. They serve on committes, they send telegrams reminding us to implent UN resolutions, they are very nice.

But why are they doing this?

Are they doing this because they really want to help out the UN?

Or are they doing this because they are enslaved?

If the latter is true, then I am really disappointed in what the UN has done in order to help us humans. We do not support enslavement, of anybody. We believe that gnomes are just as smart and intellgent as humans (and sometimes, even smarter). We cannot pratice specisism and enslave an alien race, there is no justifiaction.

Even if they are not enslaved, if they are doing this out of their own free will (I hope so), it must be note that gnomes are not considered humans by current UN resolutions, and therefore, do not get human rights. This is not good. Someone does something evil to a human, we can stop him. But what if somebody does something evil to a gnome? Nobody does anything to stop him. The gnome is hurt, but nobody comes to his aid...because he's a gnome. Gnomes get hurt too, and I think there should be a resolution that states that gnomes are just like humans and should be treated as such.

OOC: Don't nail me for a silly propsal...please. This is a serious topic, of gnomes being enslaved by the UN. Okay, it's not really serious, but ICly, I THINK it's serious...plus the gnomes are real. Nobody knows much about them.

Given the apparent powers of the gnomes (they have been known to meddle with the laws of physics in order to make sure their work is carried out), I doubt they do this work out of slavery. Besides, a lot of them are having fun in and around the Strangers' Bar at the moment.

They even bury their dead according to their ancient customs, under the Strangers' Bar. But I would favour a resolution extending human rights to UN gnomes.

I hate to break it to you but the gnomes (http://www.nationstates.net/16040/page=display_nation/nation=the_un_gnomes) are not a UN member and would not be affected by your proposal.

Bob Flibble
UN Representative

Well how about a proposal extending all benefits of member states to UN workers? That would cover the gnomes...

The UN Gnomes aren't overworked, enslaved or oppressed. Thats just a cover story the Gnomes themselves "released" to make soft nations feel sorry for them and hide their true lifes purpose, the complete domination and control of every member nation in the NSUN.

They are actually the most single minded, evil, scary and brutal race in the NationStates world. The work they do isn't work to them, its fun. They love nothing more than sneaking into an innocent nation and shredding laws. Imagine the horror of walking into your office after a good nights sleep and finding every file now exists as nothing more than a huge heap of paper bits piled up in the middle of the floor. Forcing compliance is what they live for, and they enjoy every minute of it.

The UN Gnomes don't need a proposal to protect their "rights". They are quite capable of protecting themselves ;):).

Do gnomes have different gender?
do they have sex?
can they have sex with humans (or dolphins or whatever species)?

Do they have a nation for themselves?
is their nation a UN member?


thanks if a gnom specialist can anser all or some of my question

There is a country: The UN Gnomes (http://www.nationstates.net/the_un_gnomes). I think their most glorious owner would probably be best placed to answer your questions.

I do not agree with that statement. You paint the gnomes as an evil race, and there is no proof that is true. I believe the gnomes are a good race, not evil.

We don't want anti-gnomish ideologies to spread.

Does anyone want to form a chapter of SPEW? Society for protection of Elvish Welfare?

Or should that be SPGW, not quite the same ring to it...

As concerned as I am about slavery (I will not reveal my position for or against unless you wire me a telegram)) do gnomes have human rights? They're name suggests they aren't humans, so we are not treating them like humans, but maybe we should let them set up their own country, or representatives? That way, Gnomes can enjoy our freedom, and help change the world into a better place for all.

Well, looks like they've got you conned. You've fallen for the Gnome propaganda hook, line and sinker :).

Am I the only one who knows and believes the truth about these evil creatures?

I'll get in touch with Thadbroxton Kornweasel III, Thain of the Gnomish Warbands. Maybe he can help you out.:D

I will side with the Gnomes any day. FREEDOM!!!

"Alright Who has the questions about gnomes?, And Make it Snappy, I ain't got all day!", The rather warlike gnome said in a high pitched but pugnations voice. The 3'tall gnome was standing on the floor of the UN, waering a Chain mail Shirt,and coif, plate arm and leg greaves. Mail gauntlets, and heavy hob-nailed leather boots. He was wearing a mithrial crown shaped helm on his head, and he was puffing on a rather vile cigar.
"Alright! My name is Thadbroxton Kornweasel III. For you tall types I'll talk slow so you can understand me. First of all, we have two genders male and female. What do you think we do reproduce by fission?" He paused and said, "Okay next questions I'll answer the both at the same time. Yes we do have sex and very often thank you very much! And can we have sex with humans? Why are you curious sweetie? We gnomes love Tall women! Let me know afterwards sweetie, and I'll show ya something." The gnome blew a kiss to the various tall ladies in the audience.
"Next Question...do we have our own nation? Sweet criminey Of couse we do. I happen to rule the Kingdom of the Gnomish Warbands in the Antarctic Oasis." THe Thain paused and puffed on his cigar before he continued, "And no we do not belong to the UN, in fact we patrol the frozen lands of the AO on our Sheltland Ponies looking for UN Gnomes. Once we catch em we give em a beating. Mostly the gnomes have learned to change the laws with remotes, but a few try to sneak in."
The Gnome paused and then said,
"Well heres the rest of the info. I got business to attend to. We're trained in covert anti-UN gnome activities, we are great engineers, we use magic, and medieval weapons and armor. And we hate short jokes!" ,The gnome glared out at the audience and said, "the first of you that tries a short joke gets their scrotal sac used as a speed bag!" "Well is that is all. May I offer you some Clicky Clacks(TM). They're made from the sun dried bollocks of the orcs of the defunct nation of UrakHai-hai-hai. They're either a children's toy or a snack...we're not sure which!". The gnome then started to stanp out of the hall. He stopped and turned and said, "and we don't need any UN protection. We can fend for ourselves." Thadbroxton Kornweasel III left the hall to meet with some of his female admirers.

I can't believe that there is a war between UN Gnomes and Non-UN Gnomes.

Maybe we can help out the UN Gnomes against the Non-UN Gnomes.

Does anyone want to form a chapter of SPEW? Society for protection of Elvish Welfare?

Or should that be SPGW, not quite the same ring to it...

I think the SPEW is a good idea. We can form it as a committe and defend the freedom of UN-Gnomes, helping them because they help us.

Perhaps, while we're at it, we can also start up a chapter of SPIT, the Society for the Preservation of International Tackiness.

Both the UN and non-UN Gnomes would be candidates for protection as "Tacky Species."

To: HOCEK Conclave of Friendship, Conclave of Beauty Liaison Office
Subject: NSUN "Gnomes"

Your graces,

We've just received a report from Otaku 3rd Degree ####### of the Conclave of Beauty's NSUN observatory, discussing the existence of a curious race of creatures known as "gnomes". He has been monitoring the presence of these creatures within NSUN spaces, particularly in proximity to the recently revealed Manifestation [discussed under separate cover] at the site referred to as the "NSUN Strangers' Bar".

Our CoB colleague believes these creatures are associated with the recent "Apocryphal Revelations" the Conclave of Wisdom reports keep appearing on the shelves within their Canon Law libraries. He goes on to speculate that they are the source of the ARs, and may be some manner of Manifestation in their own right.

This gives us cause for alarm, if these speculations are true. Could it be possible that the NSUN itself is being manipulated by a Manifestation, and that the effects of said manipulation are surfacing in the form of the ARs?

We respectfully request an immediate investigation into this phenomenon, and also that the CoW be made aware of the progress of it.

Your humble and dutiful servant,
Nuncio, HOCEK Delegation to the NSUN

Dastardly Stench']Perhaps, while we're at it, we can also start up a chapter of SPIT, the Society for the Preservation of International Tackiness.

Both the UN and non-UN Gnomes would be candidates for protection as "Tacky Species."


Thadbroxton Kornweasel III stamped back into the UN Halls, still smoking his vile cigar and said,

"Thank you for your concern! Its good to see that some tall nations care for us. But as I told ya before. We don't need any protection. Now Do ya have any tall womenfolk I haven't met yet!"

I can't believe that there is a war between UN Gnomes and Non-UN Gnomes.

Maybe we can help out the UN Gnomes against the Non-UN Gnomes.


"I wouldn't call it a war. Just a general difference in principles. Before you aid these UN loving gnomes remember my nation's motto. We're shorter! Therefore We're meaner than you! Besides unless you want some of your tall warriors have their 'boys' used as a speedbag, I wouldn't get involved in a gnomish dispute."
Thadbroxton Kornweasel stared down the UN hall pugnatiously at the delegates.

There is a country: The UN Gnomes (http://www.nationstates.net/the_un_gnomes). I think their most glorious owner would probably be best placed to answer your questions.


Over 2 billion Gnomes!

Whether intelligent non-humans should be granted the same rights as humans is a recurring topic: The most recent thread about it is http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=452444, and I plan to post a revised draft proposal there later this week.

I am very worried about the rise of anti-gnomish attidues in this UN-body. I hope that this will be dispelled. The UN Gnomes are our friends. They aren't here to take over the world. Hating UN Gnomes may lead to people committing bad and terrible act towards them...like genocide (shudder).

We support your propsal, St. Edmund.

There's no way the gnomes'd let anyone commit genocide on them, not after they had to copy out the EON Convention for every UN nation in the world. More than anyone else, they know what to look for.

Thadbroxton Kornweasel III, stomped into the hall again, smoking his vile cigar, and carrying a burlap sack. The sack was moving. He looked pugnatiously at the assembled delegates and said,
" I see that yer still falling for their propoganda. Ya still believe they are harmless. Well maybe they are. Maybe they don't want to rule the world!", he paused and took a puff from his cigar.
"But we non-UN gnomes do! Behold the instrument of our triumph over you tall oppressors!"
The gnome untied the sack and reached into it, pulling out a squirming ferret! Holding it above his head he said,
"Behold! one of out trained War Ferrets! They love climbing up the trouser leg of a tall person and causing havok!" Laughing, he released the ferret and said,
"Show these tall people the true meaning of havok, Fenris!"

I put it to you that the gnomes are the least of your worries:

Over 2 billion Gnomes!
Over 750 million lawyers. And rising... (http://www.nationstates.net/nsun_lawyers)
